I have Global Entry and no checked bag. The problem is I can't even change my flight since it's the last flight out of JFK to DTW in any airline. Anyone has any suggestion other than praying for early arrival and run?
Just to follow up... I did make the flight.

The London flight got to the gate 10 mins early than scheduled. Took me about 30 mins door to door. Would have made it earlier if not because my JFK departing gate was B55 (very last gate of T4!!!). Running on the terminal was NOT fun.

I definitely wouldn't do this ever again.
